Chapter 408 Something wrong with This Woman
Melissa looked at the woman and quickly responded with a smile.
“What a coincidence, Lillian. Why are you here”
Lillian turned to look outside and said, “I asked someone to eat here. I didn’t expert you to be here too.
Did you come with a friend?”
Melissa shook her head and said, “As the boss, I treated everyone to dinner.”
“Great.” Lillian laughed. She looked at Melissa and then took out a delicate lipstick from her bag and
handed it to
Melissa
“Here you are. You don’t mind, do you?”
Melissa looked at the lipstick and couldn’t help but be a little puzzled.
“I like to use this lipstick abroad. It is plum. Your skin is white and it should suit you well. Please take it
as a gift. Thank vou for sending me to the hospital last time. I originally wanted to give it to you
whenever I saw you. I didn’t expect it to be so coincidental.”
After saying that, Lillian even winked playfully.
“Ah, this is just…”
Melissa looked at the lipstick and still felt that it was not appropriate to accept such a gift for no reason.
Just as she was about to refuse, she was pushed back by Lillian.
“Please take it. I told you that I would treat you as a friend. Alright, I’ll be going out first. My friend is still

me.”
Lillian smiled and turned to leave.
Melissa looked at her back and frowned slightly. She didn’t know why, but she felt that Lillian was a little
too enthusiastic. Although she came back from abroad, she didn’t have to be so generous to a woman
she just met.
For some reason, she opened the packaging of the lipstick and opened the lid.
The red plaster spun out, and there was a strange smell. It was different from the perfume or the
normal scent of lipsticks.
Melissa was stunned. She smelled it again and couldn’t help but frown. She thought of something and
scraped off a bit of the plaster with her nails, rubbing it on the silver necklace around her neck.
And she washed off the stain on her hands.
“Melissa, what took you so long? The director and the others have played two rounds.”
When Melissa returned to her seat in the dining hall and sat down, the colleague beside her started
talking to her happily. Unexpectedly, after more than half an hour, the colleague could not help but call
out when she saw Melissa’s necklace.
“Melissa, did you rub something on your necklace? Why did it turn black?”
Melissa looked down and saw that the silver necklace had turned black. Her heart sank.
It seemed that there was a problem with the lipstick.
Melissa laughed and replied, “Maybe it was dirty just now. It’s fine. I’ll go back and clean it up. Sorry, I’ll
send a
When no one was paying attention, Melissa took out her phone and sent a message to Annie, “I
recently met a woman called Lillian. She just came back from South Korea. Help me to have an
investigation of her.”
The other side quickly replied, “Got it.”
This meal did not end until nine o’clock in the evening. Although the doctor had repeatedly warned
Jaylin that he should not drink too much, he was still drunk. Half of his body was pressed against
Melissa.
“You guys go first. I’ll drive him back.”
After saying goodbye to her colleagues, Melissa finally stuffed Jaylin into the passenger seat and drove
him back to the villa. She took out the key from the pocket of Jaylin’s coat and opened the door, half
dragging him into the bedroom.
“Melissa…” Jaylin’s face was flushed red from the alcohol. He unconsciously opened his mouth and
muttered. The strong smell of alcohol hit Melissa’s face, she paused for a moment and moved him to
the bed.
She suddenly felt relieved. She just wanted to go to the refrigerator to see if there was any yogurt. She
did not expect that the man would grab her wrist when she turned around.
“Melissa…”
When Jaylin saw that the woman beside him was Melissa, he grabbed her hand and placed her hand
on his chest.
“Melissa, I like you … Don’t go. Don’t leave me, okay? I like you; can you be with me? Murray, he, he is
not worthy of you…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was probably because of the wine that Jaylin spoke chaotically, but Melissa could hear it.
She frowned and wanted to break away from Jaylin’s hand, but she did not expect Jaylin to grasp her
tighter and tighter, and his words became more and more presumptuous.
Melissa gritted her teeth and struggled to free her hand. She directly pulled aside the quilt and covered
Jaylin with it.
“You drank too much. Have a good rest.”
After she said this, Jaylin muttered a few more words, but Melissa did not care about it at this time.
After the mess just now, she was very embarrassed. She felt that Jaylin’s feelings for her were a very
troublesome matter.
Melissa had just let out a sigh of relief when she glanced at Jaylin with worry. Jaylin soon fell silent and
he was probably asleep.
She felt relieved. Just as she walked out of the bedroom, she heard the phone ring in her pocket.
Melissa took out her phone and saw that it was from Murray,
“Murray, what’s wrong?”
“Where are you? Why aren’t you at home?” Murray asked in a serious tone.
“Well…” Melissa deliberately lowered her voice.
“Today, Jay left the hospital. I took him to the filming site. In order to celebrate, we dined together at the
Wisteria tonight. Are you at home?”
“Yes.”
Murray frowned as he looked at the news broadcast on the TV. It was reported that Jaylin left the
hospital together
